Fare is still a good one, except UA no longer flies into CPH, so you'll have to take AC. Just remember even as a *G you won't be able to select seats (nor get preferred ones) on AC unless you pay.

FYI, Copenhagen is expensive. Think $5.00 USD for a Coke. Hamburgers $16, and nothing special chicken salad for USD $24. Other than that, it's a beautiful city.

As a native Dane and a seasoned travellor I'm able to confirm this. Price level here is higher than in Sweden and most other European countries (except for Switzerland) - even Norway may be cheaper due to current exchange rates. So you may get a cheap fare but expenses during you stay may be considerably higher than you are used to from home or other European countries. Anyway, enjoy your stay in Copenhagen; always worth a visit during the summer.

It's not, and as far as I know, the thread has been posted to the MR (non premium) deals section of the forum.
The premium fares section has its own sub-forum. Where you are posting is not the premium fares sub-forum.
On topic, the fare is great, but the min. stay (7 days) make it to pull the trigger for a MR.

Agreed; this is a very good fare for a vacation, but is not a Mileage Run. To me, a MR fare should be available for as little as a same-day turn, but certainly for 2, 3, or 4 day round trip. Looks like this fare jumps up to $600 - 700 when you shorten it down to that length. Not bad, but not great.
